The simplicity with which you can use Syma X8 Pro is incredible, so it’s recommended for beginners, and even for kids under the supervision of an adult can learn the secrets of flying the drones.

PROS:

Those who have little experience will take about 1 minute to assemble this drone, this is again in the PRO category for those who are looking for an easy to assemble and ready to fly as fast as possible a drone. The remote control is also easy to use but it is advisable to read the user manual.
